Review of Conan the Destroyer (1984) by Brendan N — 31 Jul 2010
Conan deserved a better sequel then this film delivered. sadly I fear producers had a hand in this production because it feels to much like a buddy film in parts when the character was so much more complex in the original.
Arnold lets face it isn't here for the acting chops but he's presence is felt with the character. the giant actor had presence and its what makes this film work.
The story is very tired and just doesn't deserve the running time. arnold deserved better and this sadly left the conan franchise in trouble for quite some time.
Hopefully the next reboot will get it right but for the meantime this will do if you are looking for conan movies.
Not the worst of its type but far from the great original.
